Blog posts and articles documenting the 2020 Dallas Cowboys season.
This Saturday will be the deadline for the Dallas Cowboys to select their 53 man roster. 2020 will be different from previous years because new rules permit the team to expand it’s roster to 55 players on game days. This will be accomplished by allowing teams to temporarily bring up from their practice squad which will now be expanded from 12 to 16 due to the pandemic. That is not…
The Dallas Cowboys defensive line has undergone quite the transformation from last year. Not only is there a new defensive coordinator in the building (Mike Nolan), but they have also replaced Rod Marinelli with Jim Tomsula as the defensive line coach. Along with the coaching changes, there will be a change in philosophy and some personnel changes as well. That will hopefully bring the 2020 Dallas Cowboys offensive line to…
The Dallas Cowboys offensive line has long been considered the biggest strength of the roster. While they do have a lot of talented players at the position, their dominance has been exaggerated somewhat, especially of late. This season Joe Philbin was brought in as the new Dallas Cowboys offensive line coach and hopefully with his extensive experience and familiarity with new head coach Mike McCarthy, he can lead the unit…
The Dallas Cowboys wide receiver group is arguably the best in the league, or at the very least the best top three. While they lack a truly dominant number one wide receiver such as Michael Thomas, DeAndre Hopkins, or Julio Jones, Amari Cooper is in that conversation. Cooper is certainly a top 10 and possibly a top 5 talent at his position. Coop is considered one of the premier route…
The future hall of fame Dallas Cowboys Tight End Jason Witten is gone for good and Blake Jarwin finally has an opportunity to really prove his worth. Jarwin is the front runner to become the new starter but he will have some competition and a new coaching staff to win over in 2020. Which Dallas Cowboys tight end if not Jarwin has the potential to step up and deliver? Jarwin…
Following a disappointing 2019 season, the Dallas Cowboys made some wholesale changes on the coaching staff starting with Mike McCarthy replacing Jason Garrett as head coach. They also hired several new assistants most notably defensive coordinator Mike Nolan, defensive line coach Mike Tomsula, and new special teams coach John Fassell. The Dallas Cowboys are hoping that these changes will elevate them to a deep playoff run and their first appearance…
The Dallas Cowboys appear to have evolved from a run first offense to a more pass oriented philosophy. Despite that trend, one Dallas Cowboys running back, Ezekiel Elliott, remains one of if not the best player on the roster. Elliott is without a doubt the feature back but second year standout Tony Pollard emerged as a superb complimentary weapon in his rookie season last year. Beyond those two, there is…
The Dallas Cowboys quarterback position has never looked deeper than it does for the 2020 NFL season. Yet, the long term prospects at the position appear nearly as bleak as they had been during the years between Troy Aikman and Tony Romo. This of course is due to the fact that Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys failed to reach a long term agreement and therefore their young franchise QB…
